Celebrating the holiday season with family

We were so blessed to be able to spend the holidays with our WHOLE family! My parents and brother came in from Orange County and stayed with us. The Barkocy family drove up from NM to stay with Meema and Papa and we were able to see Bonnie and the boys in the days leading up to Christmas. The week was spent with many celebrations... first Papa and Mimi's birthdays on the 23rd where we hosted dinner at our house. Ben's birthday on Christmas Eve was celebrated with a cocktail party at our house which was interrupted when Tucker decided to eat an entire box of See's candies. After a quick trip to the ER, we were back celebrating with cheesecake and presents and Tucker was able to come home. Christmas morning was spent with just my family at our place with presents and brunch. Brady was thrilled to find that Santa brought him a new scooter and soccer goal. He also got a new workbench from Beepa that's been a favorite. Meema and Papa hosted Christmas dinner at their house with the whole family. They hosted another even bigger dinner on the 26th where Kevin Barkocy's family joined in as well as Jim & Karen Gleason. Karen made an incredible lasagna for 22 people! All in all, the week was busy, but very enjoyable. We are so blessed with such a fun and loving family.
